I had same error with OSS driver, but not with ALSA.
I think you should try ALSA, as well. 
Some recent destributions are optimized for ALSA, at reast my destribution is.
I don't know the Redhat 7.2J is optimized for ALSA, or not.
ALSA has better performance than OSS anyway. Do you have paticular reason still
using OSS ?

Here are just for information. My configurations;

    cpu: pentium mmx 233MHz
    sound card: ESS1869
    linrad: lir00-46
    linux destribution: Omoikane(subset of the Debian)
    ALSA driver: ALSA 0.5 snd-card-es18xx
    mixer: aumix
